It also sorts newsgroups and matches responses to the items involved. Release date is approaching. Our initial release will have news interfaces -- the incoming news interface came up today. Almost all the recently expressed netnews "wishes" have already been incorporated into notes (except compaction of text). More news (*snicker*) as the release date approaches. We have several test sites which should be coming on line within the month. Ray B.
